🛠️ Tools Overview

This server provides 27 comprehensive Git operations organized into six functional categories:

📦 Resources Overview

The server provides resources that offer contextual information about the Git environment:

🎯 Prompts Overview

The server provides structured prompt templates that guide AI agents through complex workflows:

🚀 Getting Started

Runtime Compatibility

This server works with both Bun and Node.js runtimes:

The server automatically detects the runtime and uses the appropriate process spawning method for git operations.

MCP Client Settings/Configuration

Add the following to your MCP Client configuration file (e.g., cline_mcp_settings.json). Clients have different ways to configure servers, so refer to your client's documentation for specifics.

Be sure to update environment variables as needed (especially your Git information!)

#### Using Bun (bunx)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "git-mcp-server": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "bunx",
      "args": ["git-mcp-server@latest"],
      "env": {
        "MCP_TRANSPORT_TYPE": "stdio",
        "MCP_LOG_LEVEL": "info",
        "GIT_BASE_DIR": "~/Developer/",
        "LOGS_DIR": "~/Developer/logs/git-mcp-server/",
        "GIT_USERNAME": "your-username",
        "GIT_EMAIL": "[email protected]",
        "GIT_SIGN_COMMITS": "false"
      }
    }
  }
}

#### Using Node.js (npx)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "git-mcp-server": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["git-mcp-server@latest"],
      "env": {
        "MCP_TRANSPORT_TYPE": "stdio",
        "MCP_LOG_LEVEL": "info",
        "GIT_BASE_DIR": "~/Developer/",
        "LOGS_DIR": "~/Developer/logs/git-mcp-server/",
        "GIT_USERNAME": "your-username",
        "GIT_EMAIL": "[email protected]",
        "GIT_SIGN_COMMITS": "false"
      }
    }
  }
}

#### Streamable HTTP Configuration

MCP_TRANSPORT_TYPE=http
MCP_HTTP_PORT=3015

Important: when running in STDIO mode (or HTTP mode launched without a TTY), the server disables ANSI color output by setting NO_COLOR=1 and FORCE_COLOR=0 to ensure clean MCP client streams. You generally do not need to set these manually.

✨ Server Features

This server provides a comprehensive feature set:

• Declarative Tools: Define agent capabilities in single, self-contained files. The framework handles registration, validation, and execution.
• Robust Error Handling: A unified McpError system ensures consistent, structured error responses.
• Pluggable Authentication: Secure your server with zero-fuss support for none, jwt, or oauth modes.
• Abstracted Storage: Swap storage backends (in-memory, filesystem, Supabase, Cloudflare KV/R2) without changing business logic.
• Full-Stack Observability: Deep insights with structured logging (Pino) and optional, auto-instrumented OpenTelemetry for traces and metrics.
• Dependency Injection: Built with tsyringe for a clean, decoupled, and testable architecture.
• Edge-Ready Architecture: Built on an edge-compatible framework that runs seamlessly on local machines or Cloudflare Workers. _Note: Current git operations use the CLI provider which requires local git installation. Edge deployment support is planned through the isomorphic-git provider integration._

Plus, specialized features for Git integration:

• Cross-Runtime Compatibility: Works seamlessly with both Bun and Node.js runtimes. Automatically detects the runtime and uses optimal process spawning (Bun.spawn in Bun, child_process.spawn in Node.js).
• Provider-Based Architecture: Pluggable git provider system with current CLI implementation and planned isomorphic-git provider for edge deployment.
• Optimized Git Execution: Direct git CLI interaction with cross-runtime support for high-performance process management, streaming I/O, and timeout handling (current CLI provider).
• Comprehensive Coverage: 27 tools covering all essential Git operations from init to push.
• Working Directory Management: Session-specific directory context for multi-repo workflows.
• Configurable Git Identity: Override author/committer information via environment variables with automatic fallback to global git config.
• Safety Features: Explicit confirmations for destructive operations like git clean and git_reset --hard.
• Commit Signing & Identity: Support for controlling commit signing and identity via environment variables (e.g., GIT_USERNAME, GIT_EMAIL, GIT_SIGN_COMMITS) with sensible fallbacks.
